Are hunting and fishing truly on the way out?
Sk8man replied to Sk8man's topic in Open Lake Discussion
It's true Mike. When I was in Junior School (now Middle school) they had a target range in the basement of the school where we held our Rifle Club events and even when I was in a Youth Group at the Episcopal Church we regularly did archery practice and competed among us in the basement (think I was in 7th grade then). Now kids spend their time alone or with one or two others doing video games, watching pxoxrxnxo, or hacking into computers while in their own finished basements or bedrooms without any parenting going on or supervision of any type and probably little to no awareness of what was going on..... until something terrible happens. Kids and adults don't know how to sooth themselves, entertain themselves with outdoor activities requiring effort or with productive activity. Does it sound like "Grumpy Old Men".?..Yep (but that doesn't mean it isn't true) -

I go with spoonfed's suggestion. Ii used to snell my hooks but for years now use the knots much quicker and they work fine with either knot mentioned.

My response was essentially in agreement with chinook35 response (done after mine was posted) although I didn't think it needed to be specifically mentioned as far the presumption of innocence in my post since it is commonly known in our society after the Supreme Court ruled on it in 1895, its in most state Constitutions and also UN Human Rights declaration (internationally) guarantee and I was referring to after being found guilty. but apparently someone took offense to that.....too bad....I'm not about to apologize for the post.

Brown trout. Spotting below the lateral midline section, spotting on adipose fin, eye extends beyond the rear edge of the mouth. The spotting itself sure doesn't look very characteristic of a brown though.Would be nice to see the tail shape as noted above and the fins look pretty light colored for a brown too but they (the fish) vary greatly in coloration among the lakes and stream environments too. It looks kind of anemic for a brown or landlock

Yeah folks used to spray their lures with WD40 too and that isn't a great idea on several levels. Superstitious behavior has many avenues of expression
